For the afternoon showing of a film, a theater sold 100 tickets, each of
which was either a $7.50 ticket for a
child or a $10.00 ticket for an adult. If
the theater collected a total of
$812.50 for the tickets, how many
adult tickets were sold?
A. 20
B. 25
C. 40
D. 60

B. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the no of adult tickets sold is shown below;

let us assume the number of child ticket be x

And, for adult ticket be y

Now as per the questions

x + y = 100

7.50x + 10y = 812.50

Multiply by 7.50x in equation 1

7.50x + 7.50y = 750

7.50x + 10y = 812.50

-2.50y = -62.50

y = 25

Hence, the number of adult ticket sold is 25
